"This book is the first serious attempt in any language to combine
the study of Solomon Maimon's philosophical writings with an
analysis of his autobiography. Socher's innovative and exemplary
work of intellectual history greatly enriches our understanding not
only of a highly intriguing individual but also of a transitional
period dividing the Jewish Middle Ages from the modern Jewish
world."--Allan Arkush, Binghamton University
"I read Professor Socher's book on the iconoclastic philosopher
Solomon Maimon in one sitting. Despite its erudition, it reads like
a novel. With rare expository grace--rare at least in scholarly
disquisitions--he unravels the multilayered enigma of this complex
figure. . . . Few have examined both dimensions of Maimon's
philosophical patrimony as a single skein. In a word, Socher's
study of Maimon is a tour de force that will command wide scholarly
attention and acclaim."--Paul Mendes-Flohr, University of Chicago
and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem
